A bold, unfiltered juice bomb packed with rush-hour intensity. Bursting with tropical citrus, stone fruit and a resinous hop punch. Buckle up - this IPA is gridlocked with flavor.

An Imperial IPA acquired from the decent folk at Half Time Beverage some months ago. An IPA, it needs to be consumed from what I see on the bottom stamp. The pour inside of my Great Heights snifter from the 12 oz can arrives orange-gold followed by a heroic top of off-white foam. I smell tropical, maybe guava, and some citrus working its way in along with a spot of hops. The taste goes a bit unusual, is that some spiciness in there? In any case there is orange rind, cedar resin, white bread, a mango sweetness. The sensation is substantial. Interesting brew, A good sampling.
